New York: The 2025 Met Gala, themed "Superfine", witnessed a historic moment for Indian representation as Bollywood megastar Shah Rukh Khan, singer-actor Diljit Dosanjh, and actress Kiara Advani made striking debuts on the iconic Met steps, captivating global audiences with powerful fashion statements rooted in culture, legacy, and personal narratives.

This year’s gala, focused on menswear and Black Dandyism, marked a shift in red carpet dynamics, highlighting minimalism, cultural elegance, and heritage.

Making his first-ever appearance at the Met Gala, Shah Rukh Khan embodied royalty and personal branding. Styled by Sabyasachi Mukherjee, he wore a black tailored jacket adorned with a dramatic “K” pendant, a custom “SRK” jewel set, and a Bengal tiger-topped sceptre. According to Sabyasachi, the look was designed to “represent Shah Rukh Khan as Shah Rukh Khan.”

Despite mixed reactions online, some calling the ensemble “forgettable” and others lauding his timeless charm, his signature pose on the blue carpet ensured a buzzworthy debut.

Making her Met Gala debut while expecting her first child, Kiara Advani wore a custom Gaurav Gupta Couture piece titled ‘Bravehearts’, blending black, gold, and white. The ensemble celebrated motherhood with a heart-shaped plaque symbolizing new beginnings. Crafted with metallic flows, the gown echoed Gaurav Gupta’s signature but took a futuristic turn, aligning with the theme of the night.

The look paid homage to the spirit of the Black Dandy.

Diljit Dosanjh, styled by Prabal Gurung, brought unapologetic Punjabi flair to the Gala. His outfit, featuring traditional elements rooted in his Punjabi identity, earned him praise for “serving royalty, legacy, and aura.” A first for an Indian male musician at the Met, his look fused heritage with high fashion, making him one of the night’s most talked-about celebrities.
